I use and enjoy Google Maps, but some of the features are baffling, like insisting on switching you to a "faster" route even after dismissing the proposal several times. This almost got me into trouble a couple of months ago when I was driving from Odessa to Chisinau. One route goes through Transnistria which is currently controlled by the russian military. I'm not sure if Google is aware that there is a war on currently, but I don't fancy getting shot just because California product manager guy believes he knows best.
